Stocks fell broadly on Monday to start the month of March with all three major indices red in midday trading. Investors digested a decline in February's ISM Manufacturing PMI data which fell to 50.3%, down <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/03/44081294/tariffs-weigh-on-us-manufacturing-february-prices-grow-at-fastest-pace-since-2022">from 50.9% in January.&nbsp;</a>
Overall demand weakened in February, new orders and employment contracted and production growth decelerated sharply. The impact of new tariffs drove prices higher at the fastest pace since June 2022,&nbsp; according to Trading Economics. Additional tariffs are set to go into effect on Tuesday, dampening investor sentiment.&nbsp;

Earnings Scheduled For March 3, 2025

In the current market session, Dave Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAVE#NASDAQ">DAVE</a>) stock price is at $100.00, after a 1.06% decrease. However, over the past month, the company's stock spiked by 7.18%, and in the past year, by 281.98%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is overvalued, even if the company is not performing up to par in the current session.

<h3>Evaluating Dave P/E in Comparison to Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Dave has a better P/E ratio of 33.23 than the aggregate P/E ratio of 28.73 of the Consumer Finance industry. Ideally, one might believe that Dave Inc. might perform better in the future than it's industry group, but it's probable that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1740495649_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.

Shares of companies in the broader financial sector are trading lower amid overall market weakness on US consumer and economic concerns.

Canaccord Genuity analyst Joseph Vafi initiated coverage on Dave Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAVE#NASDAQ">DAVE</a>) with a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/dave/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">Buy rating and a price forecast of&nbsp;$120.</a>
The analyst said that Dave offers a refreshing alternative for consumers in search of a bank account and cited a 2023 FDIC survey, which revealed about 14-15% of Americans are considered underbanked.
However, being underbanked doesn&#8217;t necessarily correlate with low income. In fact, the same survey showed that over 34% of households earning more than $75K were still classified as underbanked, the analyst noted.
According to the analyst, households avoid traditional banks due to high and punitive fees, leading them to rely on non-bank financial services.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/01/43377131/tim-cook-wont-say-how-apple-plans-to-handle-trumps-tariff-policies-but-heres-whats-at-stake-for-the-iphone-maker" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tim Cook Won't Say How Apple Plans To Handle Trump's Tariff Policies — But Here's What's At Stake For The iPhone Maker</a>
Dave&#8217;s target total addressable market includes around 180 million consumers, which it describes as financially vulnerable. This group includes not just lower-income individuals, but also younger adults just beginning their financial journeys.
Dave generates revenue from a wide range of consumer groups in ways that traditional banks cannot, because its business model doesn&#8217;t rely on a conventional net interest margin (NIM) approach.
Dave operates as a fully virtual banking platform built on a modern technology stack with a revenue model based on transaction fees rather than NIM. This allows Dave to profit from accounts with low balances while customers only pay for the services they use.
Dave has been able to maintain consistently attractive customer acquisition costs thanks to an improved consumer banking experience, opined the analyst.
The combination of low customer acquisition costs (CAC), along with double-digit growth in both members and ARPU, is driving solid financial metrics.
The analyst notes Dave&#8217;s fixed cost structure can support significantly higher revenue, suggesting further margin improvements in the future.
In response to the CFTC&#8217;s investigation of Dave&#8217;s <a target="_blank" href="http://Fin Tech Firm Dave Faces Legal Action Over Alleged Hidden Fees, Misleading Advertising" rel="noreferrer noopener">business practices and the consequent lawsuit</a>, Dave has removed optional tipping and express fees for the Extra Cash product. Meanwhile, the analyst expects these adjustments not to hinder the company&#8217;s current growth trajectory.
The analyst notes Dave is tapping into a substantial, largely untapped market of underbanked consumers. The company&#8217;s market strategy has evolved, its product offerings have been optimized, and the results are now evident in its P&amp;L performance.
The analyst expects that Dave&#8217;s operational leverage could drive EBITDA margins higher, potentially providing a modest uplift to its valuation.
Price Action: DAVE shares are trading higher by 3.35% at $100.19 at the last check Friday.
